Students usually want to find out more about a course prior to registering for it. Preview pages are a great tool to market and explain the course to prospective students. A preview page may consist of:

• course description
• course objectives
• instructor background and contact information
• a modified syllabus
• technical requirements for taking the course
• a content sample

Previews are typically hosted on a departmental web server. You may want to consult your department about the availability of such resources.
